Isaiah 42:10-18

Isaiah 42:10-18New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)

A Hymn of Praise

10 Sing to the Lord a new song,his praise from the end of the earth!Let the sea roar[a] and all that fills it,the coastlands and their inhabitants.11 Let the desert and its towns lift up their voice,the villages that Kedar inhabits;let the inhabitants of Sela sing for joy,let them shout from the tops of the mountains.12 Let them give glory to the Lord,and declare his praise in the coastlands.13 The Lord goes forth like a soldier,like a warrior he stirs up his fury;he cries out, he shouts aloud,he shows himself mighty against his foes.

14 For a long time I have held my peace,I have kept still and restrained myself;now I will cry out like a woman in labor,I will gasp and pant.15 I will lay waste mountains and hills,and dry up all their herbage;I will turn the rivers into islands,and dry up the pools.16 I will lead the blindby a road they do not know,by paths they have not knownI will guide them.I will turn the darkness before them into light,the rough places into level ground.These are the things I will do,and I will not forsake them.17 They shall be turned back and utterly put to shame—those who trust in carved images,who say to cast images,“You are our gods.”

18 Listen, you that are deaf;and you that are blind, look up and see!
